I am fully aware that I am posting far too frequently for a person working between 12 and 14 hour shifts but it's not like I'd be sleeping anyway.
Things are getting pretty exciting right now as we've hit the single figures in the countdown to the Games. Channel 9 did a fly over the G and tacked the shots onto the end of a story about the medal designs. There are a lot of people working really hard and really long hours in the lead up to March 15th and it's great to be a part of the team. The atmosphere is sensational and I can only imagine what it will be like during the actual show. Being the sentimental girl that I often wish I wasn't, there may be a pair of glistening eyes as I watch the show as is often the case with opening nights for me.
I spent most of my day walking around with large trays of coffee as it was rather cool in the stands today. There are a few run down and sniffly people who I'm desperately hoping I didn't make sick. The doc did say I wasn't contagious... *sigh*
My night rounded off with the creation of a new spreadsheet (I'm becoming an rather big over-user of excel on this job) and being surrounded by my beloved papers.
I still found myself angry this morning about the incident with the dog. She's more than likely still in the hospital and when I called to check in was advised that 31 "stray" dogs had been hit by cars on Sunday and taken to the Lort Smith Animal Hospital. That made me more sad than anything else. I can only hope that some of the drivers stopped for the dogs.
Nothing much else to report really. I'm missing Gene bucket loads right now. It's funny how even though I had a fairly full day I still found time to miss Gene and feel lonely. I even found myself singing quietly while walking through the stadium. It's sad I know :)
I am eternally grateful to Matt for returning my VAST cd as I have been missing it over recent times. Music for the soul that first CD. I'm still trying to develop a taste for the second CD but it needs more time.
While I would usually sign off with a comment about bed, there is a pressing need for some food right now. My stomach says so.

It was good you followed up on the doggie. The poor thing. What a bastard that person was. After you finish the lord of dreams books I'm lending you my copy of "V for Vendetta" and the "Watchmen" as well. Very different from the Sandman but really cool. especially V. Really looking forward to the film now. Comedia masked terrorist setting the minds of the populus free. Great stuff. Eat and sleep well sweetie. :) Thankyou again for the Friday tickets.
